The students and passersby were intrigued by Su Fan and were eagerly anticipating a big juicy tidbit from him when they saw him suddenly collapse and convulse, leaving them all dumbfounded.
"What's wrong with Su Fan!?"
"The way he's twitching is exactly the same as Manager Liu's just now. Could he also be suffering divine punishment?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Didn't Madam Wan say that she would only punish those who had malicious intentions towards the braised food recipe?"
Someone asked Wan Shu, "Young Lady Wan, do you know what's going on here?"
Wan Shu feigned a confused expression: "This... I don't know either..."
It would be strange if Wan Shu didn't know.
In ancient times, a woman's reputation was highly valued, and Wan Shu would never allow Su Fan to reveal what he and the original owner of the body had done in the past.
Or perhaps, even if Su Fan said it, no one would believe him.
Thinking of this, Wan Shu's expression became increasingly confused and innocent: "I remember the master did say that only those who harbor evil intentions towards braised food will be punished by heaven."
At this point, Wan Shu stopped talking and fell silent.
Human nature is so strange. If she tells the whole story, people may not believe her, but if they deduce it themselves, they will believe it without a doubt.
Suddenly, an elderly woman in the crowd clapped her hands: "I know! It must be this Su Fan who also has evil intentions towards braised food and wants to use this kind of framing to get the braised food recipe!"
"Definitely. He must have realized that no one was going to fall for his tricks. He couldn't marry Miss Wan or get money from her family, so he settled for second best and set his sights on Miss Wan's braised food recipe."
"Tsk tsk tsk, a woman's reputation is so important, he deliberately used this to make a fuss, his intentions are despicable!"
As Wan Shu had expected, everyone firmly believed in the conclusion he had drawn and continued to condemn Su Fan.
"I never wanted her lousy braised food recipe. Why would a scholar like me need to sell braised food recipes? What I just said is true. Wan Shu is a slut. She seduced someone while her husband was still alive..."
"Aaaaaaah! It hurts so much!!!"
Su Fan tried to struggle, but whenever he tried to bring up the past, Wan Shu would use the electric shock device on him, with each shock becoming more powerful than the last.
"Wan Shu is a slut... Ahhhhh! Help!"
"She was the one who started flirting with me... Ahhhhh! No! It hurts!"
"That bitch Wan Shu, she even cut back on the children's allowance for my sake... Ahhhhhh! No, no, no! I was wrong! Please don't punish me! My penis is almost numb!"
After several such incidents, Su Fan had no choice but to completely abandon the idea of dragging Wan Shu into the mess.
The crowd became even more convinced of their own guess.
"Oh my, look how many times he's been punished by the heavens! I wonder how wicked he is!"
"As a grown man, instead of thinking about making money, he only wants to profit by slandering women. He's not even worthy of being called a man, let alone a scholar! He deserves to be punished by heaven for crippling his manhood!"
"Actually, I've heard about Miss Wan's affair with Su Fan before. I used to think it was just Miss Wan being unfaithful, but now it seems it might all be Su Fan's slander!"
"That's right! It must be Su Fan's slander!"
Wan Shu secretly smiled to herself, thinking that her three taels of silver were well spent.
She not only eliminated the two potential threats, Liu Liang and Su Fan, but also cleared up the rumors and gossip surrounding the original owner of the body.
In this way, even if someone tries to use the things the original owner did to make a fuss about her in the future, they won't have the chance, because no one will believe it!
Wan Shu looked at Meng Wenyuan.
“Young Master Meng, that’s the situation. I think that with Su Fan’s character, he is really not worthy of being a scholar, let alone studying at Dongcheng Academy. I hope you can tell your father everything that happened today so that he can make a decision.”
Meng Wenyuan nodded solemnly: "Auntie, don't worry! Our Dongcheng Academy will absolutely not tolerate this!"
Although Meng Wenyuan did not explicitly say that he would expel Su Fan from Dongcheng Academy, the meaning behind his words was all too clear.
Wan Shu didn't say anything more, just nodded, and left with the three little ones.
"Come on! Mother will take you to buy meat!"
In a good mood, Wan Shu led the three little ones toward the street corner where the butcher shop was located.
We no longer lack meat at home, but because we used to live in extreme poverty, our five little ones still can't help but have their eyes light up whenever they see meat.
However, the three little ones' attention wasn't on the meat today.
They looked at Wan Shu with a mixture of surprise, doubt, and suspicion.
"Mother, what exactly happened with that heavenly punishment just now?"
"Was the braised food recipe really passed down to my mother by a reclusive master?"
"If people who have evil intentions towards braised food will be punished by heaven, then why are the Li family and my second aunt unharmed?"
The last person to ask questions was Dazhu.
Wan Shu looked at him with considerable surprise: "I really didn't expect that you could tell that your second aunt also wanted braised food, Da Zhu."
Liu was not Dazhu's biological sister-in-law, and Dazhu was too embarrassed to talk about her behind her back, so he just chuckled and scratched his head.
Wan Shu didn't make things difficult for him and explained with a smile.
"The matter of divine punishment was made up by your mother. You remember I told you before that my soul left my body for a period of time. During that time, I not only saw many strange and wonderful things, but also gained a magical ability."
